Hi i saw on this 1 site http://www.melevsreef.com/pico.html that this is a 2 gal tank. If i did make something is there any fish that will be able to go in it? If so then what kind? what would i need to make it? any help or feedback will be very appreciated.

You really shouldn't put fish in a tank that small, you could put in some live rock and maybe coral, but I wouldn't recommend fish.

I can't find any fish that can go in a tank smaller than 10 gallons, so that wouldn't work, you might be able to put in a cleaner shrimp. I would just get a 10 gallon though, since nano tanks are way more expensive than a 10 gallon aquarium.

The Panda Goby is a perfect fish for a 2g tank. They don't even reach 1/2". They are super cute and super expensive. Others that might do well would be redcap gobies as they stay really small. I have a goby in my 75g that is only 3/4". I wish I knew what it was. It looks like a smaller Catalina goby.

I was thinking of putting in a few babies and then selling them to my LFS (aquarium illusions).So how much is the goby exactly? if it's over a hundred i might as well as get a 10gal tank. but i still would much rather have a 2gal. then it won't take up much room. :D

The red caps, and catalina gobies are under $20 each. The Panda is wildly different from shipment to shipment, store to store. Expect $45-100 each.

A baby yellow watchman goby and tiger pistol shrimp would make an almost guaranteed symbiotic pair creating a neat little display for a small tank.

I was just at my LFS and i talked to them about it. in a bit when i get the money (550) i'm gonna pay them to set up a 20gal aquarium. it comes with the live rock and sand and the filter and light. Then i will have the small one for my babies or sick coral/fish. Is there any kind of fish that will do well in a 20 gal. i want 2 clownfish and i want colourfull ones. any ideas?
